Hi there,
I've been reading a lot of guides lately and i got something i can't figure out by myself.
I just discovered the rule of 102.4% avoidance cap and it seems that to calculate it maths go like this:
CAP = 5% base + %dodge + %parry + %block
I must be missing something because if i take myself for example
http://eu.battle.net/wow/es/character/uldum/gar%C3%BCda/simple
then it sums 70.62%. Is this math right? If i take pala tanks from Paragon guild none gets to CAP either so it makes me think im wrong.
Rate my gear, build, gems if you want ill appreciate it. Getting prepared for heroics.
Sorry for my bad english.

Im reading everyone is stopping at 45% block rating and inscreasing dodge and parry to 15% afterwards, is that right?
I've got 45% block and 10% both dodge and parry. Should i start increasing dodge and parry and forget block for a while?

Not sure where you read that, stick with block.

Total (after reforging):
3561 Mastery Rating
1885 Dodge/Parry Rating
40 Block Rating
~3300 Strength
~300 Agility
+ buffs (agi, str, dodge)
63%+ block + 4.4% base
10%+ dodge/parry + ~10% base + ~4.5% from strength + ~1% from agility
5% miss
Sum: 98% give or take a couple % with buffs and diminishing returns.
Edit: this is all non-heroic gear.
Here's one with Heroic gear and DPS gear:

Easily reaches the cap.
Edit 2: forgot helm enchants on both, adds about .1-.2% more avoidance/mastery

Christ on a Bike blademeld that's quite a clown suit. Also I'm amazed how low you can get the health on that.

At this point there is no way to reach 102.4%. Maybe by the end of the expansion
This was the challenge.

Oh I know. I wasn't criticizing. Just amazed that you still only have ~125k even in straight up 372.
